Here is video of conservative Bill Bennett absolutely stealing the show on CNN today where he was asked to comment on President Obama's trip to Copenhagen, Denmark to lobby for Chicago to get the bid for the 2016 Olympic Games.

Bennett said there is "one good thing about Obama going to Copenhagen: He is going to have some really positive things about the United States while abroad." He also said, "I hope he is pro-American."

This is just something I thought was funny, (the title of the piece that is)

Especially since not only did he have to say nice things about the US which was a lie to him, He also had to say nice things about Chicago, which was also a lie to him. Then to have the world through it back and stuff it in his face with not only getting the lowest vote count, but it was the lowest vote count since the 80's.

Thank you, Dr. Bennett for speaking frankly and honestly. I watched the awful presentation by the U.S. Olympic bid team and was embarrassed by it. The level of presumption by the U.S. was palpable and the people of Chicago don't even want the Olympics in their backyard. When are our leaders going to wake up and understand that their responsibility is to better our lives and reduce our obstacles instead of digger the hole of debt deeper and diminishing our options further. Shame on President Obama for wasting his valuable time and confusing his priorities.
